Can't help you there - mine has been as different as the weather.

I do know that my mums pregnancies were all similar except for pelvis sym. disorder with her last one (5 G, 1 B), but I believe that was more of a too many children and age thing (42 with her last).

I think the general consensus is that you should never expect 2 pregnancies to be the same, but from your question i am assuming you have had a very similar run? With my 1st DD my only symptom was tiredness in the 3rd trimester, this time i has MS and was tired from early on. Food cravings are very different for me this time too, with DD it was all healthy stuff like fruits and salads, this time its all high calorie stuff and junk and soft drink.

i know one girl with 3 boys and a girl (only one, the others i know with more than 3 all have boys) and she said her's were all the same, she was so sure lucy would be another boy (they didn't find out til the day) and were so shocked when she popped out

I'd LOVE that to happen for us!!

Yes, all my pregnancies have been very similar but not identical and this one is panning out to be along the same path. I was hoping for an easier one, that perhaps might mean more likely a girl. But seems I'm going to suffer all the way through this one too.

Well, I've got 2 boys and now PG with a DD and all my pregnancies have been roughly the same. My MS started at 7.5 weeks with DS1, 6 weeks with DS 2, and 7.5 weeks again with DD. But I was sick with all 3. Other than that, subtle differences here and there but overall the same!!

^^My cravings and morning sickness levels have been the same through all three of my pregnancies. Not a single fruit craving, no meat aversions (like so many people say is a "girl" symptom), same basic level of nausea/throwing up. In that regard, they are the same.

But I can't say my pregnancies have been identical either. My first two I had insomnia from week 10-25 and got horrible back acne. I was a happy preggo and it "agreed" with me (despite not sleeping!) This time around I have heartburn, lot of belly upset (indigestion, internal gas, rolling feelings), and was sensitive to smells early on. I am also a very grouchy preggo and I look like heck (face broken out, lank hair). My first two were boys and this is a girl.

But it wasn't the "typical" cravings/morning sickness that made this pregnancy different. It was other stuff. And frankly, most of that stuff wasn't obvious until week 8-10. Except the heartburn and smells part. The rest took a while to show up.
